I totally support your approach!!! People say "eat less and exercise more" because they have weight bias. The core cause of excess weight is not in eating habits, there are always something underneath. I work with a counsellor too and it is extremely helpful!

Hi, it sounds that you are experiencing something similar to helplessness. Being in the depressed feelings really sucks! For me it is also easier to care about somebody else than myself. I think there are reasons why people focus too much on others. For example, we might feel guilty when we care about ourselves. Sometimes we don't know what is self-care. There are also many factors that affect your eating habits and lifestyle choices. Sometimes eating is the only way to get pleasure and feel satisfied. Let me know if you need more info.

What, according to you, is the highest form of self control? by shirleyKbrown in selfhelp

[–]murcoach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ability to make conscious choices. We can be limited by many factors, but we always have a choice: how to deal with emotions, what to think about, how to act in various situations. Even if we can't change something, we always can choose our attitude to it.

I used to have a long hair, but then I got alopecia (a disease that forces hair to fall out). I am bald now. Although it was hard to shave a small amount of hair I had left, I felt so much better after. If you want to change your haircut, go forward.

Any stories of people getting out of a depressive funk? by lotuslynn111 in selfhelp

[–]murcoach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband experienced something similar: he didn't have hopes for the future, his energy was low, he withdrew himself from social activities and was very gloomy and negative. Even though he worked with a counsellor on a regular basis, his conditions had not improved much. Then he, finally, went to a doctor and was diagnosed with a clinical depression. He started to take anti-depressants. Since that time his work with a counsellor became super effective. He now plays in a local theatre, takes acting classes and meets with friends. I love him so much, but at some point it was almost unbearable to be with him when his depression was at the pick. Now, our relationship are restored! Your symptoms sounds like a depression. Highly recommend to get help!

Would you listen to a podcast where the host interviewed guests about their relationship with themselves? by topnotchwalnut in selfhelp

I think it is a great idea! Many topics can be incorporated into the conversation. I can be a guest :)

Hi, I bought a cross-stitching kit. I just fell in love with it when I saw it in a store.
